General Health Care

Archive for January, 2010

Group health insurance is a health insurance plan that is bought by a company, large or small, in order to offer their employees affordable health insurance. The owner of the company then offers qualified employees a chance to join the group health insurance plan. All or part of the premium is paid by the employer. Employees generally have the option to add a spouse or child to the group health insurance plan. Employees typically have to fully cover the cost of adding a spouse or child themselves.

Most companies that offer group health insurance offer all employees the exact same affordable health insurance. Large companies may offer several different group health insurance plans, with varying levels of coverage and cost.

The reason why group health insurance is cheaper per person than individual insurance is that the insurance companies risk is spread out among many people. A few might get sick or require expensive hospital visits, but most will remain healthy.

While group health insurance has been the only way many people can purchase affordable health insurance, premiums are rising. Employees are getting less coverage for more money. This is why so many people are clamoring for health care reform although most people do not agree on how health care reform can be accomplished. Most people do agree that few Americans have access to affordable health insurance.

Do you suffer from upper body weakness that inhibits manual wheelchair use? Is your lifestyle limited by your ability to do every day activities on your own? A mobility scooter may be the answer to newfound independence.

Mobility scooters are quite expensive, but if you qualify for Medicare coverage, you can own one at little or no expense to you. Medicare provides coverage for electric mobility scooters through Part B. Part B requires payment of an annual premium. Once your annual premium is paid, Medicare will pay 80% of the cost of the scooter. If you have secondary insurance, the remaining 20% balance can be paid through that provider, literally making the scooter 100% free to you.

To obtain a prescription for a Medicare scooter, you must regularly visit a neurologist, orthopedic surgeon, rheumatologist or doctor of physical medicine. Your doctor is required to explain to Medicare why a mobility scooter is medically necessary for you. Using a scooter outside the home or purely for leisure is not adequate for Medicare to approve coverage. You must needthe scooter for in-home mobility to qualify.

In order to be approved for a mobility scooter, you must have good vision, be able to safely operate the scooter or have someone available to make sure the scooter is operated safely, and your home must permit easy access of the scooter without obstruction.
